A Study of Reproductive Wastage among Commerical Sheep Flocks Grazing Oestrogenic Pastures in South Western Australia
Reproductive wastage was investigated over two seasons in ten Merino flocks grazing pastures based on oestrogenic subterranean clover. Only 65 percent of ewes were served during the first 16 days of joining. Ovulation rates were low, averaging 1.13. Fertilization rates (73%) were low when compared with flocks unaffected by oestrogenic pastures. Embryonic mortality varied considerably between pr...
متن کاملParasites in sheep grazing on Kikuyu (Pennisetum clandestinum) pastures in the winter rainfall region.
Regular worm counts were done post-mortem on sheep that had grazed on Kikuyu pastures at the Elsenburg Research Station near Stellenbosch, a winter rainfall region. Major species were Trichostrongylus colubriformis, Trichostrongylus axei, while Ostertagia circumcincta was usually present in large numbers. Minor species were Haemonchus contortus, Nematodirus spathiger, Dictyocaulus filaria, Oeso...
متن کاملGrazing behavior and energy expenditure by sheep and goats co-grazing grass/forb pastures at three stocking rates
A study was conducted to assess effects of stocking rate (SR) on grazing behavior and energy expenditure (EE) by growing sheep and goat wethers co-grazing grass/forb pastures. Grazing was for 16-week periods in 2002 and 2003. Pastures consisted of various grasses, primarily bermudagrass (Cynodon dactylon) and johnsongrass (Sorghum halepense), and forbs (e.g., ragweed; Ambrosia spp.). Sheep (Kha...
متن کاملRestoring Tallgrass Prairie and Grassland Bird Populations in Tall Fescue Pastures With Winter Grazing
Restoration of grasslands dominated by tall fescue (Schedonorus phoenix [Scop.] Holub) to native tallgrass prairie usually requires burning, herbicides, or reseeding. We tested seasonal grazing by livestock in winter, combined with cessation of fertilization, as a restoration tool for modifying the competitive dynamics among herbaceous plants to restore tallgrass prairie communities in southeas...
متن کاملForages and Pastures: Grazing and Forage Management
Pastures located on southern Iowa cow/calf farms, from 8 to 125 ha in size, were used to evaluate the effects of microclimate, shade, botanical composition, and other pasture characteristics influencing the temporal/ spatial distribution of cattle within and outside streamside zones of pastures. Cows were Angus and Angus-cross on 4 of the farms, and Mexican Corriente on the remaining farm. Duri...
